as someone who is an artist (I design lighting and scenery for theatre), I have to say that there is nothing romantic about a "starving artist". It's downright miserable and pathetic. Anyone who is an artist would like to make a living doing their art, otherwise you have to have another job, which takes time/energy from creating your art.
